BC Partner site

Just a stupid question about my parter site. The default template the BC sets up for me, am I able to delete this and set up my own, but retain some of the content and replace the rest with my own?
I did set up another site for myself as well which i can cancel and move across if I can.

Of course you can. A proper BC template is just that, the content will be in web pages, modules, content holders and web apps. Just re-use them, change the layouts, update the templates, Do your own CSS and javascript and you are away.
Most of the top partner sites you will come across are all custom built.

  • What is the best way to apply a template to the rebranded partner site?

    My partner site got severely jacked up when I was brand new to BC.
    Since then I've overwritten it in Muse while attempting to "try' it as well.
    Apparently does some "cleaning" meaning the template files I once had access to in the templates folder got deleted. bleh.
    Is there a quick way to apply another template I own to that site such as publishing a trial site and re-pointing dns or anything that direct and smart; or is the only way to do it a manual, one by one by one of files, modules, content holders and so on?

    Hey there,
    If you want to access those partner site templates, layouts and everything else, here are some FTP details you can use:
    host: maxdesigncompany.businesscatalyst.com
    username: maxdesigncompany.businesscatalyst.com/[email protected]
    password: password
    Feel free to log in through FTP and download the whole site. All the modules should work since the module IDs on your site will match those on this site.

  • My new partner site has none of the pre-built content discussed in the documentation

    I am a new premium partner and I am very confused.  I have found many great support docs and tutorials that want to help me get my new partner site up and running, but none of the pre-built content that is discussed in these articles exists in my partner site.  There is one page and one page only (home/index) in my new partner site.  I have a support ticket that I submitted 47 hours ago and was escalated 36 hours ago and I still have no resolution.  Can anyone help?  If this discussion falls into the hands of a BC support person, can you PLEASE access ticket #OBNW4395487?  I have a client waiting for me to take his site live but I cannot do so without first setting up a payment gateway in my partner site that allows for recurring billing.  Thank you!  - Jack

    Hi Jack,
    Go to your partner portal > tools and you'll find http://syd.worldsecuresystems.com/CatalystHelp/PartnerContent/Unbranded-Partner-Site-Conte nt.zip link there. You can use that content for your partner site. There are also instructions there on how to implement it. That's if you want a templated partner site. Otherwise you can always transfer your existing portfolio site to your BC site or whip up something nice and unique.
    Cheers,

  • BC Partner site not appearing in DW CC

    I am a BC partner, and when I use DW CC to edit my sites I can't see my free partner site.
    When I go to the list of my BC sites, the list is empty.
    Can I use DW CC to edit my partner site?

    Did you define the BC site in DW?
    Go to Site > New Business Catalyst Site.  You should receive a log-in prompt.

  • How do I delete a bc gurus template on my partner site?

    Hi,
    I purchased the bc gurus
    uguru-verticalmarketing-au1
    template and imported it on my partner site but now I would like to remove it all and create my own custom site.  How is the best way to do this?
    Thanks,
    Tammy

    Hi
    You can use any composition widget such as tool tip , where you place the trigger on page and remove hide initially for target which will appear as a pop up on page.
    If you want to achieve using html , through Object > Insert HTML
    This should help you :

  • Partner site data center

    In working with a few client sites, I've noticed they seem a bit snappier and responsive than my partner site. I decided to look up the server location (used this tool:http://www.81solutions.com/server-location.html) and found that my client sites are being hosted in the NA datacenter while my partner account is in the Australian DC. My question is: is it possible to have a partner site hosted in the NA DC? I want to make sure things are as responsive as possible but don't want to waste time recreating & migrating the site to the NA DC if it will somehow be moved to the Australian DC when I have BC support flip the switch to make it my free partner site.

    Hi denny_cave!
    Unfortunately the partner account cannot be switched to another DC as requested. 
    However each DC (US, AU/Asia and UK) should be responding and performing at similar rates. 
    If you are noticing quite a difference my suggestion is to reach us either on chat or submit a case perhaps with an attach video of what you are experiencing so we can investigate this further for you. 
    You can use Jing if needing to provide a vid cast. - http://businesscatalyst.com/wishlist

  • How to download free partner site into Dreamweaver

    Hi All,
    When I try to download the free Partner Site into Dreamweaver , it does not show up in the download BC site list, so how do I download it?
    Thanks

    Hi Alex,
    Thanks  alot for your reply. I followed your instructions and when I try to log in I get the following message:
         "An FTP error occurred - cannot make connection to host. User limit reached or not authorized to make the connection due to local firewall blocking FTP data."
    I know it is not firewall issue and I am the only user. Any ideas?
    Thanks again for your reply!

  • Restore menu from partner site in BC

    Hi,
    I have completely overwritten the files for the menu from the original partner site and wish to retrieve it and start again. I was stupid enough not to copy and save correctly so now am having trouble creating a "good looking" menu

    Apparently, there is no such thing as URGENT answers from BC employees on this forum, which I find very sad and discouraging. If I cannot get help regularly, how can I rely on the BC hosting system? On the MUSE forum, one employee tried to help, but could not provide a complete answer. I had to figure it out on my own. For anyone else struggling  with what to do, here is the answer:
    For any other designers in the same situation, DO NOT FOLLOW the advise found on the following link regarding setting up a client site in the Partner Portal (BAD ADVISE is on STEP 2: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1741). Rather, set up a NEW BC trail account using a new ADOBE ID for the client.
    1) Create new Adobe ID for client
    2) Create new Business Catalyst (BC) TRIAL ACCOUNT for client using the new Adobe ID (which forces BC to “recognize” the new Adobe ID”)
    3) NOW you can UPGRADE the client’s site in the new “30 day trail account”
    4) If you are using MUSE to build the client’s site, MUSE will now regonize the client’s new Adobe ID and not give errors when switching accuonts in Preferences
    5) You can UPLOAD the site from MUSE and add BC modules

  • Download the Free Partner Site?

    Hello,
    Does anyone know how to import the Free partner site into dreamweaver?
    I've done this several times with other sites including paid, trial and subscriptions but for some reason the
    option to download the free partner site is not available.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Conceptstore,
    I've been having the same issue, and it's been driving me insane! But, I've finally shed some light on the subject..
    To my understanding.. Business Catalyst will not connect your partner site with Dreamweaver or Muse (which I am using to design my sites.)
    What you can do, is use filezilla to FTP the files both from bc to your local machine, where you can edit them, then upload them back.
    Business Catalyst Help | Connect to your site using SFTP  -here is a guide
    I also watched a youtube video about adding your site in the filezilla preferences (which saves you from having to login every time).
    hope this helps, -Colton

  • I chose a template for the free partner site but want to change it for another one

    I chose a template for the free partner site but want to change it for another one. Is there anyway this is possible and to start again? Been looking for hours to fix this and kinda got frustrated and deleted most of the code.....

    I had the same problem.
    I wanted to test the free site with a dummy site first but I since I can't delete the dummy site now to start afresh, I have no choice but to go elsewhere.

  • Rename Your Partner Site Post Company Merger

    Our company has been bought and renamed to become a new division.
    As such we need to update our partner site domain name to address the requirements of the new company. A chnage from veridicalconsulting.businesscatalyst.com to the new name and domain dms-group.businesscatalyst.com.
    I contacted support after I updated the Adobe ID and contact details etc. I was allocated this ticket number 81737. I provided all details requested and continued to provide updated information yet I keep getting automated emails stating that the ticket is waiting on more information from me and has been pending for 5 days. So basically it looks like my request is being ignored as I was informed it would be escalated to level 2 support but there has been no follow up. I paid to be a premium partner and would have expected a better level of service from Adobe - it was always exceptional in the past. Like everything post GFC its become somewha lack lustre.
    Any way I just need the issue resolved with a solution not to complain. Surely it should be possible to rename a partner account domain.
    Appreciate any assistance.

    Hello,
    Please accept our apologies for the late reply in this case. I have now taken over, and just replied to it - please review it and let's continue over the ticket.
    Thanks,

  • Publish from Muse to Free Partner site?

    I will putting this in the "Ideas for Features in Adobe Muse" section as well, but thought I'd raise the question and see if anyone has a workaround...
    With Muse you can connect directly to your free or paid websites, but you CANNOT connect directly to the Free Partner Site.
    You can use Muse to build the site, export it as html and upload it with a separate FTP program, but you cannot hit "Publish" in Muse and connect to the Free Partner Site.
    However, Adobe has an option to UPGRADE your Partner plan to Standard Reseller Option (US $995) or Premium Reseller Option - private label program (US $1,995). I received this information via email after requesting it here: Partner Program FAQs | Adobe Business Catalyst
    If you scroll down to "Can I still purchase a Standard or Premium Partnership?" you can request this info through "contact BC support"
    Apparently, with either of these upgraded plans, it IS possible to Publish from Muse to the Partner Site.
    This was confirmed in two different chat sessions, here's one:
    Jason Ott: do you mean...if I'm using the free Partner site it won't work with Muse, but if I'm paying for a Partner site I will be able to see it in Muse?
    Gaurav A: Yes. You are correct.
    Jason Ott: any plans for being able to use Muse to connect to the Free Partner site in the future?
    Gaurav A: No information on this yet. This is related to your Adobe ID and how Muse interacts with it.
    My requests are...
    CAN WE GET MUSE TO PUBLISH TO A FREE PARTNER SITE?
    IF NO, WILL THIS EVER BECOME AN OPTION?
    DOES ANYONE HAVE A WORKAROUND?
    It just seems strange that I can publish with Muse to everything else on BC except the Free Partner site.
    I suppose there is a technical reason for this, but I thought I'd put it out there to see if there was a solution.
    Any thoughts of workarounds?

    I need help with this too! Weird that there is no function for this in Muse. Please help Adobe!
